in hong kong everything is shitty, at least for powerbook users. i had a 1400 before, it took 3 months to get a replacment lcd screen, when the battery went dead, apple rep even told me battery was not for normal use, i should put the computer to sleep every time i unplug the a/c adapter and never use my PowerBook on battery... i guess the problem is not the parts, apple (hong kong) NEVER want to help powerbook users, they really suck -- On Wed, 25 Aug 1999 00:09:16 Michael Williams wrote: >Eight months???!!!???
